Money Management for Gamblers
The purpose of this article is to educate and inform gamblers about the aspects of sports betting. Hope to lead to a more profitable betting experience for you the player. I have had the distinct pleasure of talking to many players and it seems that the one area that needs the most help is a money management system to implement in their sports laws.
Let's step in and start focusing on money management. Let us first start by saying that the main reason that 99% of sports laws lose is mismanagement of money from the beginning. Even if you have access to winning tickets without a good money management system, the choices are useless.
This article is not intended for those who are recreational bettors and who would like to drop a few dollars on the occasion of Sunday's football game to make it more exciting to watch. On the other hand if you are one of the people who treat sports betting as an investment, please read on, this article is made for you!
First and foremost, you need to set up your gambling bankroll. Your gambling bankroll should consist of the money you put aside for risk on your sports betting. Your bankroll should not include money used to pay off your mortgage and bills. In fact, if possible, you should have a separate bank account so that you can keep your gambling and live money separate for any avoidance of confusion or accidents.
Next is to decide what the size of your bets will be. You should almost never save more than 5% of your bankroll on a single match. Just because in sports wagering there is no particular thing or slot as some handicappers may have you believe. There are too many variables in each game to control how the ball bounces back and whether the game ends in your favor.
Your daily bets should be in the range of 2-4% of your most current bankroll. We say current bankroll because every bettor will have some winning streaks and some losing streaks throughout the year. No matter who you are, you will have some loss streaks throughout the year. Keeping your daily bets in the range of 2-4% of your current bankroll will eliminate the chance of losing your entire bankroll on a single row of losses.
Lastly and most importantly for a good money management plan to work you need to have some self control. It may sound easy, but that is not always the case and it can be the hardest part of a successful sports bet. You do not always win and in these situations you need to be able to show control or find yourself in something that you may not be able to get out of.
The problem that most gamblers have is that they do not look at sports betting as an investment when in fact that is exactly what it is. Remember that old sports betting is not a sprint, it is a marathon. Your results should not be measured daily or monthly. Take your time instead, stay focused and practice self-control. Sports betting can be one of the most lucrative investments available today if you use our tips described above and proceed with caution.
